What do they want?

Okay, I am wondering about something. I keep hearing the media wanting to destroy President
Donald Trump's Administration. The
democrats and media seem to be against everything President Trump stands
for. They are wanting to defeat
everything he wants.

Well, he wants to bring down the corporate tax to a low of
15%. That will help corporations invest
in expanding their work force, thereby growing the economy. What do the democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to lower the individual personal tax rates to a 15%
level. That would allow each taxpaying
American to keep more of their earned money for themselves. What do the democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to renegotiate the North America Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA). Jobs have been taken
over by that platform of trading modality, having removed millions of jobs from
America to be installed in other parts of the world. He wants to bring those jobs back to America
raising the employment level in this country, that will even strengthen the
unions. What do the democrats find wrong
with that?

He wanted to withdraw from the Trans Pacific Partnership
(TPP) trade deal. Negotiating a better
deal for America would create more jobs in this country and create better deals
for all of us. What do the democrats
find wrong with that?

He wants to end the death (penalty) tax. A tax that forces families left with a family
farm or other large businesses to sell their farm or family business because of
the enormous tax burden the government wants to force on the heirs. What do the democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to fully deduct childcare expenses from a family's
tax burden. Allowing families with high
childcare expenses to get back some of that money to use for other things
needed. What do the democrats find wrong
with that?

He wants to reverse restrictive energy executive orders
created by the former Administration in order to bring down the cost of energy
for everyone. What do the democrats find
wrong with that?

He wants to find alternative energy sources that will keep
emissions down and create clean, renewable energy to help the environment. What do the democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to strength the relationship with our allies and
those who want to do us harm. That would
make our nation stronger and make us all safer.
What do the democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to ensure that people from various countries whose
governments have vowed to kill Americans and disrupt the American way of life
in such a way as to destroy our society, be subjected to an "extreme"
vetting that will ensure that only those who want to assimilate to America are
allowed into America. What do the
democrats find wrong with that?

He wants to expand our military the last Administration
allowed to weaken their strength-force to be less than pre-WWII levels, to be
rebuilt to levels that would cause enemies to rethink their will to harm
Americans. What do the democrats find
wrong with that?

He wants to clean out the deep and wide corruption in
Washington DC decimating the power of lobbyists and bring back integrity,
morality and honesty to government. What
do the democrats find wrong with that?

If the media and the democrats don't want any of these
things, what do they want? If it is
significantly different from these aspirations for America, what is their allegiance
to, and who is it they are following?
